John,
    If you have a good = cooling setup=20 the question is really about optimizing engine oil temp not managing = flow over=20 #2.
    Therefore, I keep = the door=20 closed unless the oil is getting over 200.
 
    I'm not clear that = #2 gets more=20 or less air than the other left side cylinders as you change the oil = cooler door=20 setting.  If anything, you sould just be changing the pressure = above all=20 the cylinders.   I don't notice that #2 is particularly=20 hot.   It's good to have the oil cooler backed off of #2 = enough so=20 that air can get by that part of the cylinder though.  I have to = confess=20 though, my oil cooler is backed off of #2 so I don't have any first hand = experience of what happens without that mod.
